Chapter 7 Encountering Savages on the Road
Miao Renfeng seemed to fall into deep memories, and her speech gradually slowed down. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Fang Baiyu knew that this was the other party consuming his own true qi to stimulate his potential, otherwise it would be a question of whether he could finish the matter.
"Because the 'Flying Fox' has the highest martial arts, King Chuang left him by his side and sent the other three to rush out in the dark to ask for help. At that time, the enemy was outnumbered, and the three guards of Miao, Fan, and Tian worked hard to break out of the encirclement, and when they rushed back, they did not see the figure of the king. Later, everyone learned that it was the general surnamed Hu who betrayed King Chuang, cut off King Chuang's head, and took refuge in Wu Sangui, and the treasure map and saber fell into the hands of the thief. ā
Fang Baiyu said angrily: "What an ungrateful dog thief, is he still in the world now?"
Miao Renfeng said: "Maybe it's here, maybe it's not, none of this matters." Later, all three of us went to look for the Flying Fox Theory, but we never saw him. Until one day, his son Hu Yidao came to the door and said that his father was dead, and as long as he won his Hu family knife technique, he would hand over the saber and treasure map to us. At that time, Hu Yidao was not yet twenty years old, and everyone didn't take him seriously, and they didn't want to ......"
"Could it be that several seniors have lost to Hu Daxia?"
Miao Renfeng sighed: "Yes, several people lost at that time. My father, who was so strong in blood that he knew that there was no hope of revenge for the rest of his life, even killed himself with a sword, and the other two elders followed suit. Hu Yidao didn't expect things to develop like this, he left the saber and the treasure map, and threatened that the descendants of the Miao, Fan, and Tian families could go to him for revenge at any time. In this way, the feud between the four families will never be resolved. ā
Fang Baiyu said: "Maybe there is something hidden that day, otherwise Hu Daxia can cut the grass and eradicate the roots, why bother to leave the treasure map?"
"I also thought about this question back then, but it's a pity that Hu Daxia is dead, and no one will ever know the truth...... Bai Yu, the saber was handed over to Tian Guinong's uncle for safekeeping, and now it is the treasure knife of Tianlongmen. And the treasure map was kept by me, and later I married Nanlan and made a hairpin for her, and the treasure map was hidden in it......" Speaking of this, Miao Renfeng's voice was lower, and his eyes began to drift.
Fang Baiyu was shocked, "Big brother, ...... you"
Miao Renfeng seemed to hear nothing, and there was a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, "She...... She promised me that she would keep it a secret for me...... She'll ...... ...... will do it" At this point, he finally let go of everything and closed his eyes.
"Big Brother ......"
I don't know if it's because Miao Renfeng died, the autumn rain slowly fell, and piles of dark gray clouds pressed the earth low. Dusk also came quickly, and before the water vapor evaporated by the sunlight on the mountains dissipated, the sun set into the western mountains. Fang Baiyu had been sitting in front of Miao Renfeng's tomb for three days, he hadn't eaten anything, he was just drinking. God seemed to be joking with him, the more he wanted to get drunk, but the more sober he became. The scenes that he once interacted with Miao Renfeng were projected in his mind, and he couldn't believe that a hero who stood up to the sky and the earth died so easily.
Suddenly, a voice sounded behind him, "Miao Daxia is not only your friend, but also someone whom I Yan Shizhong admires. But Bai Yu, people can't be resurrected after death, and the living have more things to do. ā
Fang Baiyu turned his head and smiled faintly, "I know this, it's just that Brother Miao's departure made me feel a lot of emotion." When death comes, whatever we have, it is of no use at all, and when death comes, the martial arts, wealth, or fame we have have no effect at all. ā
Yan Shizhong said: "I don't understand why people think so much, when I live, I only think about living well, as for death...... Oh, when we live, death has not yet come, and when death comes, we no longer exist. Thus death has nothing to do with the living or the dead. ā
Fang Baiyu was stunned for a moment, and then laughed, "If these words come out of my third brother's mouth, I will take it for granted." But from Brother Yan's mouth......"
Yan Shizhong also smiled, "Oh? So you look down on me, why can he say it if he lets Tianxing say it, but I can't say it? Alas, in fact, I have also been in the past two days, and I have some emotion, do you say that if a man doesn't marry a wife, don't there be so many things? I always feel that Miao Daxia's life is really too bitter. ā
Fang Baiyu said: "Maybe it was a mistake for Brother Miao and Nanlan to meet, the union of the two is just because of mutual favor, not love." Brother Miao is a hero, a hero, and a rough person, while Nanlan is a young lady of an official family who wears gold and silver, one is rough and the other is delicate, one does not understand a woman's heart, and the other has too high fantasies and requirements for love. She doesn't know martial arts, so she can only try to understand her eldest brother from what he says, but the eldest brother is a taciturn person. ā
Yan Shizhong said with a smile: "I agree with this, you see that I am a big old man, and no woman has taken a fancy to it until now." Unlike Ren Tianxing, who is suave and suave, women are indispensable everywhere he goes. ā
Fang Baiyu shook his head and said, "Actually, having more women is not necessarily a good thing. ā
Yan Shizhong said: "Why is it not a good thing? I see that you can't find it, so I said it on purpose." It's nothing more than 'you can't eat grapes, say grapes are sour!' hypocrisy and contemptible. ā
Fang Baiyu rolled his eyes, too lazy to meet him, "Are the Zhong brothers gone?"
"It's all gone, things have developed like this, and they are a little reluctant to go, and they always feel indebted to Miao Daxia. ā
Fang Baiyu said: "What the hell is going on with them? I haven't heard of them before?"
Yan Shizhong said: "Back then, Zhong Zhaowen's apprentice coveted someone else's treasure knife and was killed when he hit Miao Daxia. When the three of them found Miao Daxia, he was injured in the leg, but he still defeated the three. The Zhong family brothers did not seek revenge on their apprentices this time, but just for the humiliation of defeat that day. ā
Fang Baiyu nodded, "It's no wonder that they are doing this, but Miao Daxia should thank them for saving them." By the way, did I get everything you had ready?"
"If not, shall I dare to come to see you? The horses are tied up over there, and the baggage is full of silver tickets and dry rations. These are three maps, one for Yungui, one for the Five Poisons Sect, and one for the Medicine King Valley. I had a lot of hard work......"
Fang Baiyu snatched it and looked at it, "Okay, I didn't know you did your best?
Yan Shizhong said proudly: "That's, you don't want to see who painted it? But then again, don't you care about the treasure?"
Fang Baiyu said: "This matter is not in a hurry, the things are temporarily in the hands of Tian Guinong, and now no one knows this secret except you and me." The Five Poisons Sect captured Ruolan, I'm afraid it has something to do with this matter, I want to rescue her first. ā
"Now that you've made your decision, I won't say anything more, have a good trip!"
Fang Baiyu put away the map, got up and patted the soil on his clothes, "This will drive me away, it's not your character not to drink a few glasses." ā
Yan Shizhong laughed and punched him, "You've been drinking for three days, and you still want to drink again?" ā
Fang Baiyu smiled, "The matter in the meeting will trouble you, I will go and return quickly, hoping to save Ruolan before the beggar gang conference." If I still don't come back by then, you can participate on my behalf, and by the way, help me bring a good picture for the eldest brother and the third brother. ā
After Fang Baiyu briefly freshened up, packed his bags, put his baggage on his back, and rode straight to Yungui on a fast horse. Although he stayed by the tomb of Miao Renfeng for the past three days, he was thinking about Miao Ruolan all the time. Seeing that Yan Shizhong had done all the things he had explained, he immediately hurried away at night. Yan Shizhong also understood Fang Baiyu's thoughts, so he didn't leave him to drink with him.
For several days, Fang Baiyu traveled day and night, and finally arrived at the land of Yungui. This is also thanks to the good horse that Yan Shizhong chose for him, both physical strength and endurance are extremely extraordinary, and he was not tossed to death by his unscrupulous master. He followed the map all the way, and there were few bushes in the forest, all of which were towering thousand-year-old trees. The branches of the trees are intertwined, and the flourishing branches and leaves that stretch out like green clouds cover the blue sky. Strange tree protrusions appeared in front of him, its bark dark green, and strangely shaped branches coiled around the tree like dragons. The breeze passed, and the branches and leaves rattled, like the sigh of a dragon.
After a few rough paths, you came to a stream. Fang Baiyu turned over and dismounted, and when he saw that the water in the creek was crystal clear, his eyes couldn't help but light up, he squatted down and raised his hand, and drank it. The stream is cool, and there is a kind of sweetness and coolness in the mouth, which makes his whole body have an indescribable pleasure, and the heat disappears a lot, and from time to time there is a breeze blowing, and the wind also carries a trace of aroma. He took out the map in his arms, opened it carefully, and frowned secretly, "Could it be that I made a mistake? Why is it different from what Lao Yan draws?" Hmph, when Lao Tzu goes back, he will definitely look good!" In fact, it is no wonder that Yan Shizhong, the Five Poisons Sect is in Yungui Miao Village, and it is not far from the Imperial City of Dali? There are few people here, if it weren't for Huaxing's secret agent, this picture would not have appeared at all.
Fang Baiyu knew this, sighed secretly, took off his coat and put it on the horse, and continued to move forward. Turning a ditch, a group of people suddenly appeared in front of me. Fang Baiyu was taken aback, the route he took was extremely remote, he didn't see any pedestrians in the past two days, and suddenly saw a group of naked men, how could he not be surprised? If you look closely, these people are covered in strange colors, all wearing only knee-length calf nose pants, surrounded in the middle of the road, pointing in a circle. "Is it a bunch of wild people?"
Fang Baiyu wanted to make a detour and avoid these people, looking left and right, and couldn't help but curse secretly. It turned out that this group of wild men was impartial, and just got in the middle of the road, so he had no choice but to get off his horse and said loudly: "Can you let it go, and it will be convenient?"
The savages turned around one after another, and when they saw Fang Baiyu, they were startled at first, and then they came around, jumping up and down, babbling and babbling. Fang Baiyu couldn't help but feel distressed by the language barrier, he really didn't expect to encounter this situation at that time. Later, the wild people jumped faster, and their mouths continued to let out mournful sounds. Hearing this extremely ugly cry, seeing the psychedelic color, Fang Baiyu suddenly felt that his head was slightly swollen, his eyelids were heavy, if he wanted to sleep, he was stunned in his heart, and secretly screamed badly, and hurriedly shouted: "Stop me!" The sound was like thunder, and the savages seemed to be extremely shocked, standing on the spot one by one, not knowing what to do.
Fang Baiyu was secretly vigilant, and said loudly: "Are there any of you who can understand what I am saying?" When the savages heard him speak, they returned to their original state, babbling non-stop. Fang Baiyu knew that the other party was talking to him, but he didn't understand, so he had to make gestures to teach them to separate, and at the same time said loudly: "Get out of the way!"
But seeing that they didn't move, just shaking their heads and screaming, Fang Baiyu was very angry in his heart, eager to drive them away one by one, and suddenly saw an old man in blue walking out of the crowd, dressed like a Han costume. He was silent, carefully observing the old man's walking and breathing, and felt that the other party did not know martial arts, so he put his mind at ease, hugged his fists and said: "Uncle, there are pedestrians in a hurry, please ask them to get out of the way, okay?"
The old man also clasped his fists and saluted, but his face was sad, "Don't hide it from the son, it's almost impossible to get these people out of the way?"
Fang Baiyu was stunned for a moment, and said curiously: "Why is this?"
